Covered in stuttering young cause of cluttered hunger lines Everyone's a customer of something they despise Just along for the ride Tube it moved the social climb Into visual war which time Lets regrets as slippery Butter smothered witchery It's a spectator's crime Didn't never know the price Tuck me in with bad advice Wonder why the children play Better in a stepford state? Not a one would inquire All they were interested in was... We like your teller vision But the television is telling us to vision More than what you're telling us Popcorn Don't get jealous pops I'm a seed, nurture me No water please Knocked on pops to get a bag of their very own to be like the Jones' next door "What do you want it for?" Pop would say Hesitant to cop for corn Shop for jawns they never touched after a year or two Anyway, a penny saved he figured, until a day's delay... The carnival came in town packed with clowns Now, how's this gonna go down? Pop's contemplating... "Popcorn's just a date away from kids going mad." So he calls em over to his lap Begins a rap about vegetables Hoping it'll distract'em from the pop spectacle Guess you know the rest Thinking what the kids stressed... "BUMP VEGGIES, (listen) BUMP POPS! WE WANT POPCORN!" Got no silver, got no gold With no woman by my side Just an old road spectre soul Along for the ride
